BBM + Gingerbread: Is now available on google play store for android v2.3.5, we had heard
that
BBM could soon be making its
way
onto older Android devices still
running Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread.
Towards the end of the month,
we
heard that its release would be
soon and sure enough soon is
correct as
BlackBerry has officially released a
new build of BBM that would
target
Android users still running on
Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread.
So if
you’re still holding onto a device that cannot be updated
beyond
Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread but
would love to get your hands
on the
BBM app.
You will be able to do so
by heading on over to the
Google Play Store for the free download. As it stands, based
on the latest
Android distribution figures,
Android Gingerbread devices
account for about 20% of the
Android market at the moment.
This
means that at least one fifth of
Android users out there are still
using older builds of Android
that
they have either chosen not to update, or are unable to update
as
their handsets aren't powerful
enough. Granted those figures
will probably go down over
time, but that also means that
BlackBerry
has one fifth of the Android
market
that they have not tapped into.
For Android v2.3.6 you can
Download BBM from Play Store
With BlackBerry not doing so
hot at the
moment, we guess the next
best thing would be to spread
their
services around, even if their hardware isn't necessarily
selling as
well.
